You should name your company at a famous person, someone handsome, interesting, cool, intelligent, always ready to help, ...

Hmm... how about... Leech Inc.?
I won't charge you too much for the rights to use my name...

I have a home based business as well, in CO. And I paid maybe $20 for everything. To become an LLC I paid about $500 - but that's something different. Check with your accountant. They will know everything that you need!

I also had a very hard time finding inspiration for my "Web Currents" company name. My advise would be to look through old magasines etc. I for one found the currents idea in an atlas

The $15 was for the state fee but I live in Vancouver and I think it is $250 becuase it is a home based business.

the $25 was a high estimate. From what I've found it's
a one time $15 registration fee, $5 trade name fee for the state of WA

if you live in a city there is a city license -- $40 for Bellingham but I live outside of the city limits so that wont apply to me, I can't imagine it being that much higher in another city but I could be wrong.

I'm curious where you got that number for $250? I know several business owners who all told me that small number (high $25 estimate) was all that was necessary to obtain a state business license.

There are some special fees for things like selling cigarettes, etc... but web designer doesn't fall under any of those special fee categories.

take care,

The application fee is $15, but the license is $250, are you sure about that $25?

Hi Logan,
I looked at your profile and it said Washington, if you mean the state then yes you do need a business liscence. Good luck with the name I struggled forever to find mine
